Scenario I
Scenario I is based on and presents fabricated data consistent with the following study:
Tice, D. M., & Baumeister, R. F. (1997) . Longitudinal study of procrastination, performance, stress, and health: The costs and benefits of dawdling. Psychological Science, 8(6) , 454-458. doi:10.1111/j.1467-9280.1997.tb00460.x
Tice and Baumeister (1997) studied the relationship between procrastination and symptoms of physical illness in college students during an academic semester. Participants completed a questionnaire measuring procrastination. From this, they were classified as either procrastinators or nonprocrastinators. All participants also were instructed to record the number of negative health symptoms that they experienced during the first (early) and last (late) month of the semester. Figure 1.1 shows the major results of the study.

-(Scenario I) Which benefit of procrastination is supported by the results shown in Figure 1.1?
A) If all instances of illness are considered over the course of the entire semester, procrastinators would have fewer symptoms of physical illness than nonprocrastinators.
B) Procrastinators appear to have studied harder than nonprocrastinators later in the semester and, thus, may have performed better on final examinations.
C) There may be health benefits to procrastinating when assignment due dates are not soon.
D) Procrastinators have no increased risk of negative health symptoms at any time point, and experience savings in work, relative to nonprocrastinators.
